Safari, Built Around Your Kids' Attention Span

We choose family camps with connecting rooms or family tents, pools, and open, fenced common areas so parents can relax between activities. Game drives are kept shorter and more flexible than a standard adult itinerary.

Hands-on add-ons - a visit to a local school, a short guided walk, junior ranger programs at some camps - tend to be what kids remember most, more than the drives themselves.

  • Family-friendly camps with connecting rooms
  • Shorter, more flexible game drive schedules
  • Junior ranger and hands-on programs at select camps
  • Age-appropriate activity planning
